Newly refinished oak floors throughout. Newly painted interior and new carpeting to and on third floor suite. New lighting fixtures. Some NOS period correct wood exterior shutters with traditional hardware. Exterior trim, and shutters painted 2015. The neighborhood is beautiful - very park-like, secluded and quiet, yet relatively close to downtown, malls, and I-95. Great area for dog walking, jogging, and picnics at the nearby Rockwood Manor House (open to the public). This section of Brandywine Hills is highly family friendly with canopies of large trees over streets. Easy to know one's neighbors. North Wilmington location means Center City Philadelphia is a just half hour drive on I-95 and Philadelphia Int'l Airport is but 18 minutes away. Short drive north on RT. 202 yields a Trader Joe's and a Whole Foods. Wegman's is open in nearby SE PA. Very low Delaware taxes: low property taxes and no state sales tax and low income tax compared to anything over the PA line or in New Jersey. Home Depot within walking distance, as are convenience stores and banks. The house is within city limits so trash and recycling is picked up weekly, as is yard waste.
